Ottawa 67's News Release
OTTAWA - All registered minor hockey players in the Ottawa-Gatineau region aged 16 and under will be able to attend all Ottawa 67's 2015-16 regular-season home games at TD Place for free.
The announcement was made today by Jeff Hunt, Governor of the Ottawa 67's and President of Sports with the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group.
The initiative, 67's Prospects, recognizes that all minor hockey players could evolve into prospects for the 67's with enough practice, determination and hard work.
"There's nothing better than a loud crowd to provide an energy boost to the home team," said Jeff Brown, coach and general manager of the 67's. "I know all the players are looking forward to seeing and hearing thousands of young 67's Prospects at TD Place this season and they'll play our hearts out for them every game."
Inspired by Ottawa Fury FC's successful "Fury Fanatics" program, which provides all registered minor soccer players in the region an opportunity to see Fury FC home games for free, the 67's Prospects initiative gives minor hockey teams, players and their family members a chance to contribute to the vibrant atmosphere at TD Place and obtain tips from this year's highly-skilled edition of one of Canada's most storied major-junior hockey franchises.
"This is a great initiative by the 67's," said Denis Dumais, President of Hockey Eastern Ontario Minor, the parent organization for all HEO Minor hockey districts in the Ottawa region. "It gives our teams an opportunity to have an inexpensive outing together with their skates off and see the highest calibre of junior hockey in the world. It's also a chance for our HEO Minor players to strengthen their love for the game in a big time hockey environment."
To join 67's Prospects, registered minor hockey players 16 years of age and under simply visit www.67sprospects.com, and complete the form to receive an email with instructions on how to obtain tickets for any and all 67's 2015-16 regular-season home games.
